What's the betting, the charges are changed to a lesser offence and they are out within a matter of months, if convicted. :sad:

p.s. I look forward to replying to this post in a year's time, telling myself how wrong I was. :?

Not a fan of strikes, but this one is a tad different. :sad:

This game will always come with that risk.

I'm lucky in London, attacks on Licensed Taxi drivers are few and far between, and when it does happen its usualy because the drivers got out to go after a bilker instead of forgetting about it.

Its one thing I can say we ALL share in common, I'm not sure how striking will make working nights any safer?

I think it will remind those in power that they need us to clear the streets at night, and we want 100% support in our fight against the scum-bags.

Clearly a murder is as bad as you can get, but we also need the police to 100% back us up against runners and thugs, and for the courts to make examples against those scum-bags.

Will it happen? Let's start the day with a positive view and say 'hopefully'. :-$

HEADLINE: Two more taxi killing charges

Two more teenagers were charged last night with the murder of an Asian taxi driver.

The 16-year-old and the 18-year-old youths were charged with the murder of 41-year-old father-of-three Mohammad Parvaiz.

This brings the total of people charged with Mr Par-vaiz's murder in Huddersfield, West Yorkshire, to six.
